It's not really that strange that tmux doesn't support sixels. It's quite a bit more complicated and resource-intensive than ANSI Escape Codes or ncurses.
It might be fine for local[1] multiplexing but over the network it is not as fast as even something like VNC or RDP.

Zellij – A terminal workspace with batteries included (tmux alternative)
After having spent too much time trying to get the simple https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-tmux/ features into mainline tmux (last November https://github.com/tmux/tmux/issues/3753), maybe it'd be easier to jump ship as use zellij?
Could anyone offer recommendations on "riced" zellij configuations, or just a demo where it shows doing with (say charts of disk usage per folder), watching a movie with mpv + keeping a vim to type on?

I Just Wanted Emacs to Look Nice – Using 24-Bit Color in Terminals
Your approach looks very sound!
A fork of terminfo may be needed if the description of modern terminal capabilities can't be added -- or if old and deprecated attributes repurposed for that job (like in your padding example): if you're automating the correction/creation of terminfos in ~/, IMHO, it may be better to piggyback on tic as much as possible.
Anyway, to backport modern terminal descriptions to legacy programs, creating correct binary terminfos in ~/.terminfo seems the best practice. You can also invent new TERM. When I wanted to have italics etc about everywhere, personally that's just what I did for sixel-tmux: https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-tmux/?tab=readme-ov-file#ste... : just declare a new $TERM you know to be right, and use that in the apps that let you use a little logic in their configuration file
I do that in my .vimrc:
" If Vim doesn't know the escape codes to switch to italic

Terminal Graphics Protocol
You can have that functionality integrated within tmux with https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-tmux/ : if you terminal doesn't support sixels, you'll at least see something close to the picture they represent.
Then of course it's not pixel-perfect unless you make your terminal very large (like 800x240 instead of 80x24) but something being better than nothing, I'd argue it's for the better if all you can do is 80x24 with no pictures otherwise.

Are We Sixel Yet
See also rant[1] of sixel-tmux author.
> It's 2021, and we should be able to do litterate programming in the console, with full graphical support.
Yeah. We are stuck cosplaying computers from the sixties.
What's even funnier, even if you find a modern terminal emulator that supports features like ligatures, graphics, emoji etc. you still will be blocked by tmux. Sure - not everyone needs tmux. If you never work on remote machines, you can live without it.
But I work on remote machines all the time. I also use Kakoune text editor that defers window management to external tools (WM or tmux, but to be honest, tmux is much better). Zellij is more of r/unixporn bait than usable tool for now. So I'm stuck with text only interface.

That what sixel-tmux is for, when you're in a hurry and needs images with your current terminal emulator: https://github.com/csdvrx/sixel-tmux

Anyone know a Prefixed based terminal emulator that supports Image Preview of some sort? Tmux style keybindings, for splits, tabs, and sessions
Maybe tmux-sixel does that tmux sixel

I don't use Wayland yet personally but I imagine that the mpv ontop mechanism might be conflicting with the focus stealing prevention. Do you use ontop? Does it work if you disable ontop? If so, this should probably be considered a bug in mpv on Wayland.
hmm maybe not: https://github.com/mpv-player/mpv/issues/9064
